Upon hearing Wang Zheng mention the "Five-Colored Divine Light," the Peacock Demon King felt increasingly enlightened by the information unintentionally revealed by the boy.

So he couldn't help but become serious and bowed deeply to Wang Zheng, showing a sense of humility and willingness to learn.

"The peacock doesn't know the meaning of this five-colored divine light, but upon careful consideration, it seems to have a great deal to do with me. I would be grateful if Brother Wang Zheng would be so kind as to enlighten me."

Wang Zheng was internally ranting and raving.

"Hehe, so this is what brothers are like now. If I were to bring up the Investiture of the Gods again, you'd probably have to kneel down and acknowledge your ancestors."

Despite his disdain, Wang Zheng maintained a haughty demeanor and didn't offer to help him up.

Consider this a small interest payment for all the people he has harmed in Yunnan over the years.

After Wang Zheng accepted the Peacock Demon King's bow without flinching or dodging, he didn't explain anything to him, but instead chuckled.

"Hey, Demon King, you've come to the wrong person. I'm not from your Phoenix Clan or Peacock Lineage, so how would I know about your innate supernatural powers? I've only heard about it secondhand."

'The Phoenix Clan, the Peacock Lineage!'

Upon hearing these eight words, the Peacock Demon King's pupils immediately dilated, and his thoughts drifted off into the distance. It took him a while to regain his senses.

This clearly demonstrates the immense impact that short sentence had on him.

The Peacock Demon King bowed deeply to Wang Zheng once again.

"Even so, it's still better than the peacock struggling to figure it out on its own. Over the past few decades, I've already exhausted myself just from refining this one feather. If there are four more, I'll be even more at a loss as to where to begin. Please teach me, young friend."

Upon hearing the Peacock Demon King say that his azure light was indeed made from feathers, Wang Zheng was also slightly surprised.

However, he wasn't worried that this would actually teach him any special skills. At least Wang Zheng knew that the Five-Colored Divine Light in the novel was a rare and powerful divine ability in the primordial world, and it was impossible to replicate it in this era.

According to the book, the Five-Colored Divine Light was originally a primordial primordial chaos energy. When it differentiated into the Five Elements, it nurtured Kong Xuan within it, which grew into the five feathers at his tail.

It took Kong Xuan tens of thousands of years to refine it, shed its original form, and obtain a human body.

This was a skill that Kong Xuan Daoist was born with; it wasn't something he cultivated.

Everything in this world now is thanks to the revival of spiritual energy. The Peacock Demon King had already transformed into human form. Without that innate trace of chaotic energy, how could he differentiate the five elements?

The Five-Colored Divine Light is nothing but a pipe dream.

Besides, there's no such thing as the Investiture of the Gods in this world. They can make up whatever they want about it.

Thinking about this made Wang Zheng feel much more at ease.

However, he did not continue following the Peacock Demon King's words, but instead asked:

"Does the Demon King know how the world's first peacock came to be?"

The Peacock Demon King shook his head.

"I certainly don't know."

Wang Zheng feigned seriousness, sighed deeply, and then slowly began to speak:

"Legend has it that before the creation of the world, all things in the world were in chaos, but from that time onwards, there were already living beings in the chaos."

Among them, Yuanlong, Chufeng, and Shilin were the three great divine beasts. However, after a great calamity, countless people from the three races died. Then the legend of the dragon giving birth to nine sons and the phoenix raising nine chicks was passed down.

The story of the phoenix giving birth to nine chicks signifies that the phoenix left behind its bloodline before its death, giving birth to nine offspring.

They are: Golden Phoenix, Colorful Phoenix, Fire Phoenix, Snow Phoenix, Blue Phoenix, Peacock, Roc, Thunder Bird, and Great Wind.

His eyes were deep and unfocused, as if they had traveled through the heavens and returned to that primordial land.

The Peacock Demon King listened intently and dared not interrupt, patiently waiting for Wang Zheng to continue.

Wang Zheng smacked his lips helplessly, racking his brains to continue making up stories while complaining about how ignorant the Peacock Demon King was.

'You can't even be a proper straight man, yet you have the nerve to stand to my left? No wonder you got fooled!'

If the Peacock Demon King knew what Wang Zheng was thinking, he would probably be furious.

However, he was stunned by this sudden bombshell. One of the three giants before the creation of the world was my ancestor.

No wonder I felt a strange sense of familiarity when I chose Phoenix Perch as my territory; it turns out it all stemmed from the resonance of our bloodlines.

Seeing that the demon king had already fallen into his own fantasy, Wang Zheng had no choice but to continue talking to himself.

"And the first peacock in the world, which is also the descendant of the divine beast phoenix, is Kong Xuan, the ancestor of your peacock lineage."

I once heard my father say that Kong Xuan's innate divine power was the Five-Colored Divine Light I mentioned before, which originated from his refining of the five feathers at the end of his tail.

The reason this great supernatural power is called the Five-Colored Divine Light is because each of the five feathers has a different color.

Divided into five colors: blue, yellow, red, black, and white, its radiance is restrained, subtly flowing, and contained without being released; its unparalleled power flows within.

The five tiny feathers were as heavy as ancient mountains, and only those with great magical power could move them.

The five-colored divine light is divided according to the five elements; within each of the five elements, a single sweep can cleanse and destroy nothing.

Wang Zheng deliberately exaggerated the power of the five-colored divine light, making it seem earth-shattering, while completely ignoring the primordial chaotic energy that gave birth to the five feathers.

Hearing Wang Zheng's incredibly mysterious words, the Peacock Demon King was completely fooled.

He grabbed Wang Zheng's arm, his expression excited, and muttered to himself:

"That's right, that's right, I should have thought of that sooner, I should have thought of that sooner. Brother Zheng, how exactly should one cultivate the Five-Colored Divine Light? Please, brother, give me some pointers, as we are both descendants of divine beasts."

Wang Zheng subtly pursed his lips and withdrew his arm.

"We're both descendants of divine beasts, so by that logic, given my current status, shouldn't you call me 'ancestor'?"

Wang Zheng knew the saying that what you can't have is always more alluring, and if the information was obtained too easily, the other party would definitely be suspicious. So he immediately poured cold water on the Peacock Demon King.

"You flatter me, Demon King. How could I possibly know about this cultivation method? Not to mention that I was fortunate enough to hear my father talk about ancient history and vaguely remember these rumors, even if these legends were true, and there were such powerful supernatural abilities, would you reveal them to others?"

Seeing the Peacock Demon King's disappointed expression, Wang Zheng felt a little pleased.

As long as this silly peacock truly believes that such a skill exists in the world, then no matter what happens afterward, at least for the time being, he won't be in any danger to his life.

At this moment, Wang Zheng had an even more insidious plan in mind, but it wasn't the right time to reveal it yet.
